mini seven / super mini challenge racer passed away yesterday
Think it was a black one with Radio I on it, very hard keen competitor, ran in early 90s.
Those from that time remember you, and your willingness to help , Chris.
Chris was a very nice guy, and he was quick in his ole Mini, Great radio guy and part of NZ History
He had a little workshop down next to Tony Rutherford and was always chatting with him.
RIP Chris
An interesting report on TV1 news last night. One of the infamous Radio Hauraki crew that defied the Government of the day and let us listen to modern music like, shock horror, the Beatles. Gone but not forgotten.Quote:
